Hi @wabetainfo, thanks for reaching out.
As the WordPress app and Jetpack are two of our conditions for not disabling XML-RPC altogether on your server, disabling XML-RPC authentication or enforcing 2FA for XML-RPC can affect those from Wordfence specifically too. Ensure those settings aren’t enabled in Wordfence > Login Security > Settings even though you’re not using 2FA.
XML-RPC can also be entirely disabled through .htaccess, I’ll leave the code snippet you may need to look out for – and delete below, but if it’s happened with seemingly no action from yourself I’d check in with your host to see if they’ve blocked XML-RPC as part of a policy or a host-specific security/optimization plugin.
# Block WordPress xmlrpc.php requests
<Files xmlrpc.php>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Files>Let us know what you find out,
Peter.
Hi @wfpeter,
Thanks for your answer. It seems that the issue resolved itself without any action on my part. It’s very strange, but the important thing is that everything is now working as before. Thank you for your availability!
